Here’s mine. It’s fire.

Here’s mine. It feels great, a little stiffer than the 295-BB like others have said.
Here’s the measurements converted to cm for those that prefer that.
How about a run of 19L Indigo/Black?
Yeah, don’t put your phone in your jeans pockets unless you really like phone shaped fades. I use a bag, the inner pocket of a type 3, or breast pockets on shirts.
Here are estimated measurements for size M, assuming the same delta % in cm and inches
My b/b shrunk quite noticeably after a 40 degree C wash. I’m curious about the shrinking potential of the i/b too.
Here are measurements pre/post a (very) hot soak and some fairly violent agitation.
In centimeters
Shoulders: 46 / 45.7 cm
Chest: 57 / 56 cm
Waist: 53.5 / 52.5 cm
Opening: 54.5 / 53 cm
Length: 76 / 75.5 cm
Sleeve: 66 / 65 cm
In inches
Shoulders: 18.1 / 18.0 in
Chest: 22.4 / 22.0 in
Waist: 21.1 / 20.7 in
Opening: 21.5 / 20.9 in
Length: 29.9 / 29.7 in
Sleeve: 26.0 / 25.6 in
So marginal but still noticeable, it feels even better now. Super stiff after drying.
This has become one of my favorite jackets, so much so I have two. Originally got an XL, thinking the L chest would be too small. Turns out the XL was a tiny bit too big, good for layering but too roomy with just a T-shirt. So I got a L used here on the forum and it fits great, it looks really good. I take L in most shirts but have an N1 and a 19L type 3 in M.
@mecken88 Very solid contender. It’s a really nice denim.
Will the lightweight N1’s of this season be the same pattern/cut as last seasons?
Yeah I agree. I received mine a few days ago and I like it a lot. I was worried that it would be a little big but it drapes differently than most of my other IH shirts so the fit is actually absolutely perfect. It looks better IRL than in the pictures too I think. Super happy with the purchase!
I would wear them for a week or so, to make them loosen up a little, and then soak and wash them again.
They went really fast. I got the last L. Not completely sure about sizing though, it may a little bit too big.
@DQ142 The waist shrinks about an inch when washing but will stretch back out almost immediately as soon as you put them on. So you can pretty much ignore that. The inseam will not stretch back out, so they will become about two inches shorter permanently after washing.
@Pointman I don’t know for sure but would assume so. I’ve been wearing mine for a full day for the first time today and I can already see slight color variations on friction points. So I would think it will fade fairly fast.
It has also already relaxed over the chest and in the arm openings, for anyone wondering. The pockets on mine are also slightly misaligned viewed from the front but they are exactly the same distance from the side seams and centered under the yokes. I would never have noticed unless reading this thread.
